Virgina Exhaust laws

i got pulled over 4 my evo2 exhaust...i got a ticket saying illegal exhaust system and the cop told me u r not aloud 2 put an aftermarket exhaust in the state of VA ...is this tru or did he lie 2 me?!?

so wat should i say in court 2 defend myself 4 this? the pig told me that anything not stock or oem is illegal in many states, VA incl

I had the same thing happen to me when I lived in VA 1 day before I was going to pick up my WRX. I had a civic with a motor swap, exhaust, etc. I got pulled over coming back from dinner. I even told the cop I was getting my new car the very next day. He didn't care. I'm sure they hear stories like that all the time. I ended up getting an exhaust ticket & the same story you got from the cop. Anything other than stock is illegal in VA. I didn't even go to court. I just paid the fine online so I didn't have to deal with it. Boom, whack, done.

if the exhaust has a C.A.R.B or D.O.T or some other type of road certification, i would think you would be in the clear. Unless it's over 90db or better. I've heard of people with the SPT even getting pulled over and hasseled, even though it's a factory option. i work in fairfax andand have the SPT exhaust and haven't had any problems with the law.
